  • Abstract
    Recently, the power-management section at Eastern Utilities Associates (EUA) has begun using a cost criterion to determine the optimal time slots for scheduling outages of generating units. This paper describes the outage-cost criterion, outlines the coordination procedure, and presents two actual case studies to illustrate practical applications for the EUA system.
